2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV complaints

Does not adapt to front vehicles speed, just stays at the speed it is set at. I have to hit the brakes to disconnect ACC.

When I activate adaptive cruise control with cruise braking my car will follow the the car ahead of me as it speeds up or slows down. But if that car slows down to a stop light, my car will not slow down enough before the red collision warning activates and I need to apply the brakes immediately to avoid impact. Happens every time at any gap distance or set speed.

The turn signal stalk, when self-canceling from a right turn, will drop too hard, and will turn on the left turn signal after the turn, causing confusion to not only the vehicle operator, but other drivers on the road. This has happened on multiple occasions.

Extreme glare due to reflection of dash material and design causing lack of visibility while driving into the sun. Extremely dangerous design

I recently purchased this EV, and I must express my concern regarding the level of reflective glare from the dashboard onto the windshield. This glare is not only unpleasant but also poses a serious safety risk, as it may obstructs to see pedestrians crossing the street, for instance. I believe this issue is significant enough to warrant a recall. Additionally, I do not feel comfortable relying on wearing sunglasses or glasses as a workaround for this problem. This is already becoming a major issue and is affecting my overall experience with the vehicle. I urge you to look into this matter urgently.

The glare off the dashboard onto the windshield in sunny conditions is truly ungood. It is well documented, with a variety of after-market solutions, including some that are unsafe and/or illegal in certain jurisdictions: [XXX] Please insist that GM fix this problem. Lack of Apple CarPlay is also a safety issue when my kids borrow my car (seems silly to older folks, but younger drivers really depend on it).

The contact owns a 2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV. The contact stated that after charging the electric motor, the vehicle immediately lost charge within twenty minutes of driving. The contact stated that the vehicle would not properly remain charged. The contact was concerned that the vehicle might lose automotive power and stall. The vehicle also failed to blow warm air, making it difficult to defrost the windows. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The contact previously received a letter from the manufacturer about reducing the charging time to prevent a fire risk. The failure mileage was 50.

The reflection of the grate on the dashboard on the windshield creating astigmatism; blurs my vision beyond the point of distraction. My eyes hurt after a short period trying to adjust to the shifting grate. I have informed my salesman at the dealership. Seeking a solution.

ACC works ok at normal highway speeds but when the vehicle in front slows to under about 25mph the ACC doesn't slow down anymore. Then the vehicle alerts with the emergency breaking light and you need to stomp on the breaks to avoid a collision. It has been like this since I bought the car and Chevrolet doesn't seem to know what the problem is

There is a really bad glare on the front windshield during the day. It makes seeing out the windshield very hard to see cars and pedestrians.

The turn signal going in either direction has 2 positions. The first is regular on that keeps the turn signal on until it is turned off or until steering wheel is turned off. The other position is the “flick” that flashes the signal 3 times and turns it off on its own. When I set my turn signal to the regular on position to turn right, after I complete my turn the signal turns itself off and goes into the default off position. However when returning itself into the off position, it ends up going into the “flick” position for left turn. The signal then flashes left 3 times and turns off. So to summarize, after turning right while using the turn signal, it flicks itself into the left turn position. This is distracting to me while driving and may confuse other drivers as well. I took it into the dealer for this issue and they said they could not replicate it. No warning lights or anything like that. I have video proof of this happening

Extreme glare on windshield from reflection from dash.

Brand new Chevrolet Equinox EV. When Adaptive Cruise Control is engaged, vehicle will accelerate or coast to mach speed of vehicle ahead, but will not engage brakes. ACC would collide with vehicle ahead unless driver acts. Problem is ongoing. Not one-time. Have scheduled dealer service.

I recently purchased a Chevy Equinox EV and observed that it has a severe dashboard reflection on the windshield. It can be very distracting to the point that you can't clearly see what is in front of you. It requires concentration to focus beyond the wind shield. I notice it mostly during the day. An internet search reveals many complaints from 2024 and 2025 Equinox ev owners. There is an aftermarket industry that has sprung up manufacturing custom mats to place on the dash to eliminate the problem.

The entire dash reflects onto the windshield. Extremely difficult to see through whenever I was driving. I pulled into a grocery store to safely get a photo, which I will attached.

On sunny days the reflective glare off of the dashboard is incredibly unsafe. At times you have serious issues seeing through the reflections to actually see what is on the road ahead of you. Polarized sunglasses do help reduce this glare, but not eliminate it. Sunglasses are also not always available to people driving the vehicle for various reasons. It has been confirmed by many independent drivers and GM is also aware if the issue.
